Cixi was thinking about something, Xiao Zhangzi came to report, saying that the queen had arrived, the queen mother raised her head and looked at no one outside, "Why don't you come in quickly, I don't need such a big rule here." ”

The queen crossed a few blooming bright tuzzles, came in with a smile, blessed and blessed, followed by a maid holding a bottle, the queen mother nodded, let her sit down, "Come here on this hot day, sit down, there is nothing to eat here, come to a bowl of bird's nest." ”

The queen smiled: "This year, the first white lotus flower has bloomed in the wind lotus of Quyuan, and the ministers dare not play by themselves, so they will first honor the emperor's mother." ”

"The queen has a heart," the maid held a rust-colored amphora kiln bottle, in which were inserted a few half-open lotus flowers, the queen mother pinched one out, looked carefully, the goose-yellow stamens in the ivory petals are moving, "very good, put it in my bedroom." ”

Tang Wufu took the vase and retreated, the Empress Dowager Cixi and the queen said a few words of gossip, nothing more than daily trivial matters, the queen asked a few years is the seventh day of the seventh month of July, has been prepared in the same paradise play, Kun dialect, Chinese tune, and random playing, ready to sing five days and five nights of drama and juggling and the like, Cixi shook her head, "This is not busy, now the affairs of Tianjin are still making trouble, if we are still singing in the garden with such fanfare for the festival, it is inevitable that we will gossip outside, I know your filial piety, but now the situation is unstable, Don't be in a hurry for this, wait until the matter in Tianjin is resolved, and then ask the Shengping Bureau to make a big drama, if anyone wants to listen to the drama, they will pass it on themselves, and they don't have to rush to such a festival and go to the outside officials to find themselves uncomfortable. ”

"The emperor's mother is thoughtful, and her sons can't anymore."

"You arranged it very well, I looked at the account books of the Internal Affairs Office these days, you handled the affairs in an orderly manner, and Sister Ci'an also appreciated it, but the position of this queen is in charge of the later dynasty, if it is the hostess of an ordinary family, it will naturally be fine, but the queen, you have to look at the situation of the previous dynasty, and then dispatch in the center, this is the right reason."

The Queen Mother preached carefully, the Queen Mother hurriedly stood up and listened respectfully, the Queen Mother drank the tea that rinsed her mouth, and the palace maids brought up the cloisonné bowl, and the Queen Mother rinsed her mouth, "I looked at the file of the Jingshi room, and I heard that," the Queen Mother wiped her hands with a handkerchief, "The emperor hasn't turned over a few concubines' signs?" ”

"Yes," Arut replied, bowing his head.

"You and the emperor are newly married Yan'er, naturally they are in love, but in the harem, not just a queen, you also understand that the six palaces are the same as Mu Enze, and the rain and dew are evenly stained is the queen's way of dealing with the harem, and now the emperor's concubines are so many people, if there are more in the future, it will be even more difficult to manage, it is better to set the rules now," the queen mother beckoned, let the Arut clan step forward and took her hand, Alut's hand was slightly cold, just like her uneasy mood, the queen mother sighed, "You haven't seen the emperor's harem, except for those in the palace, And in this garden, what is the four springs of the Old Summer Palace, hey, there are countless people, and they were so generous back then. ”

"You just entered the palace, the people and things here, are not familiar, except for an emperor who meets a lot every day, others, I'm afraid it's just to meet and smile, this must be very apprehensive, don't be afraid, there is still me, I have already issued an order to ask the female dependents of your family to accompany you in the Old Summer Palace." You are the queen, be generous, naturally, it doesn't mean that you are not generous, you are in this position, no one can snatch you, just put 10,000 hearts. (To be continued.) )
